11. Use tips
On our web page for support we have a "Frequently asked questions" section, it is recommended
to read it.
To facilitate the reception of enough satellites and ensure a accurate position, it is recommended
to turn on our Alfapilot about five to ten minutes before takeoff.
In days of high light intensity it is advisable to wear sunglasses, since the high contrast of our screen
can produce an effect like that of snow on sunny days.
In case of not using functions that require the use of WIFI, we recommend turning off the WIFI to
avoid unnecessary consumption.
Screen backlight is only needed in dark places or during the night, the use of this lighting during the
day or outdoors does not improve the display and increases the battery consumption.
When we load our device, normally the percentage shown on the screen will reach 100% before
the load is complete, the best indicator that our alfapilot is fully charged is the green led to the
right of the power button, when it is on load this led will light up, once the load is completed this
led will turn off even when connected to the charger.
It is possible to use a PowerBank at the same time that we use our alfapilot. This will keep the
battery level always at maximum, and once the PowerBank battery is consumed, alfapilot will
continue to work with the internal battery. For every 2500 mAh capacity in the PowerBank we will
increase the autonomy in 10h.
12. Security advice
Caring for the device
Avoid environments with fine dust, such as leaving the alfapilot on thin soil.
Use the safety cord to avoid possible falls during takeoff, flight or landing.
Avoid wetting or immersing the device in water, it is not a device with protection for water, in some
cases it can withstand a few drops of water, on the screen or top.
For cleaning our alfapilot use a soft and slightly moistened cloth.
Do not use aggressive products, detergents or clean crystals to clean the alfapilot, they can affect
the paint or the screen.
Warnings to avoid damages
Avoid knocks or falls of the device, it can damage the screen and even the electronics.
Avoid excess pressure or weight on the screen, this can break.
Do not carry your alfapilot inside the backpack with the paraglider where all the weight can exert
too much pressure on the screen.
Protect your alfapilot in transport with some kind of rigid or semi-rigid case, and transport it in a
separate backpack with the rest of your delicate electronics.
The capacitive screen only responds to the pressure of our fingers or special gloves for capacitive
screens, if you wear traditional gloves and your screen does not detect your pulsations, do not try
to exert excessive pressure on the screen, as it will still not detect the pulsations and can break it.
Do not leave your alfapilot under intense sun on hot days, it can produce an excess of temperature
(more than 50ºC in the device and more than 80ºC in the processor), in this case alfapilot for
